16xESRGAN

This is a collection of pretrained models for Real-ESRGAN's Compact architecture. There are 1x, 2x, and 4x models, as well as 1x and 2x "UltraCompact" and "SuperUltraCompact" models (think of these as the equivalent to ESRGAN "lite" models). By using these are pretrains for your models, you can ensure that your models are able to be interpolated with other Compact models that were trained from these. These pretrains are compatible with most existing compact models.

The official PyTorch implementation of SRFormer: Permuted Self-Attention for Single Image Super-Resolution (arxiv). SRFormer achieves state-of-the-art performance in

    classical image SR
    lightweight image SR
    real-world image SR

The results can be found here.

    Abstract: In this paper, we introduce SRFormer, a simple yet effective Transformer-based model for single image super-resolution. We rethink the design of the popular shifted window self-attention, expose and analyze several characteristic issues of it, and present permuted self-attention (PSA). PSA strikes an appropriate balance between the channel and spatial information for self-attention, allowing each Transformer block to build pairwise correlations within large windows with even less computational burden. Our permuted self-attention is simple and can be easily applied to existing super-resolution networks based on Transformers. Without any bells and whistles, we show that our SRFormer achieves a 33.86dB PSNR score on the Urban100 dataset, which is 0.46dB higher than that of SwinIR but uses fewer parameters and computations. We hope our simple and effective approach can serve as a useful tool for future research in super-resolution model design. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/HVision-NKU/SRFormer.

SuperUltraCompact Pretrain

[Swift-SRGAN - Rethinking Super-Resolution for real-time inference](https://github.com/Koushik0901/Swift-SRGAN)

In recent years, there have been several advancements in the task of image super-resolution using the state of the art Deep Learning-based architectures. Many super-resolution-based techniques previously published, require high-end and top-of-the-line Graphics Processing Unit (GPUs) to perform image super-resolution. With the increasing advancements in Deep Learning approaches, neural networks have become more and more compute hungry. We took a step back and, focused on creating a real-time efficient solution. We present an architecture that is faster and smaller in terms of its memory footprint. The proposed architecture uses Depth-wise Separable Convolutions to extract features and, it performs on-par with other super-resolution GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) while maintaining real-time inference and a low memory footprint. A real-time super-resolution enables streaming high resolution media content even under poor bandwidth conditions. While maintaining an efficient trade-off between the accuracy and latency, we are able to produce a comparable performance model which is one-eighth (1/8) the size of super-resolution GANs and computes 74 times faster than super-resolution GANs.

NOTE: The author used the wrong file extensions for the models *on GitHub*. You will download a `.pth.tar` file. This is not actually a TAR file. Change the file extension to just `.pth` and the model will work.

While experimenting with color models for cugan, I just ran into problems that the official models are not imported correctly and have additional processing in addition to resizing. As a result, for my project I trained 2 x cugans for neosr; only resizing losses were applied to the dataset `(“lanczos”, “bicubic”, “bilenear”, “HAMMING”, “NEAREST”)`

> **Abstract:** Single Image Super-Resolution is a classic computer vision problem that involves estimating high-resolution (HR) images from low-resolution (LR) ones. Although deep neural networks (DNNs), especially Transformers for super-resolution, have seen significant advancements in recent years, challenges still remain, particularly in limited receptive field caused by window-based self-attention. To address these issues, we introduce a group of auxiliary **A**daptive **T**oken **D**ictionary to SR Transformer and establish an **ATD**-SR method. The introduced token dictionary could learn prior information from training data and adapt the learned prior to specific testing image through an adaptive refinement step. The refinement strategy could not only provide global information to all input tokens but also group image tokens into categories. Based on category partitions, we further propose a category-based self-attention mechanism designed to leverage distant but similar tokens for enhancing input features. The experimental results show that our method achieves the best performance on various single image super-resolution benchmarks.

Official DAT2 4x Pretrain of Dual Aggregation Transformer for Image Super-Resolution DAT

Transformer has recently gained considerable popularity in low-level vision tasks, including image super-resolution (SR). These networks utilize self-attention along different dimensions, spatial or channel, and achieve impressive performance. This inspires us to combine the two dimensions in Transformer for a more powerful representation capability. Based on the above idea, we propose a novel Transformer model, Dual Aggregation Transformer (DAT), for image SR. Our DAT aggregates features across spatial and channel dimensions, in the inter-block and intra-block dual manner. Specifically, we alternately apply spatial and channel self-attention in consecutive Transformer blocks. The alternate strategy enables DAT to capture the global context and realize inter-block feature aggregation. Furthermore, we propose the adaptive interaction module (AIM) and the spatial-gate feed-forward network (SGFN) to achieve intra-block feature aggregation. AIM complements two self-attention mechanisms from corresponding dimensions. Meanwhile, SGFN introduces additional non-linear spatial information in the feed-forward network. Extensive experiments show that our DAT surpasses current methods.
